Bringing Forth Event Of Mary

LESSON
# 350 FROM HOLY QUR’AN

Bringing
Forth Event Of Mary

Surah
‘Aali ‘Imran (The Family Of ‘Imran, Chapter - 3)

Verse
– 35 & 36 of 200, Section –4 (Part – 3)

35. (Remember) when the wife of ‘Imran said: My Lord! I have vowed unto Thee that
which is in my belly as a consecrated (offspring). Accept it from me. Lo!
Thou, only Thou, art the Hearer, the Knower!

36. And when she brought forth she said: My
Lord! Lo! I have brought it forth a female. And Allah knew best of what she
brought forth- and the male is not as the female; and lo! I have named her
Mary, and lo! I crave Thy protection for her and for her offspring from Satan
the outcast.

‘imra-‘atu ‘Imraana – (spouse of Imran),
her name was Hunnah bint e Faaquuz.
She had made a vow unto Allah Almighty according to the custom of her time
that, which offspring was in her belly, she would set it free in the name of
Allah Almighty. It meant, “That child will use to worship Allah Almighty and
serve the Church always being free from all worldly works”. She also prayed, “O
Lord! Accept it with Your kindness from me. You are the Hearer of my request,
and You know my aim as You are the Knower”.

As though,
that woman prayed hinting for the birth of a son to her (offspring). But her
hope did not come up and absurd a daughter was born from her. Therefore, she
said with grief, “My Lord! Lo! I have brought it forth a female”. Allah
Almighty commanded her that her daughter was very auspicious, she did not know
that her daughter would bring forth a blessed and honorable son (Prophet Jesus
Christ (peace be upon him).

Wife of Imran requested God Almighty, “I have
named her Mary, and I crave Your protection for her and for her offspring from
Satan the outcast”. Allah Almighty accepted her request. We have learnt from
this narration that, “Although each kind of badness had been grown in the
children of Israel in those days, but even then some persons out of them were
present who used to love Allah Almighty and they used to endow their children
for religious duty.
